I will make the same remark here as I made in response to the edk2-platforms series: Could we please consider introducing a way to define the default resolution of a library class? That way, all this churn and unnecessary breakage would not be necessary, as defining a resolution would only be necessary when deviating from the default. In fact, we might be able to clean up some .DSCs considerably by defining defaults for library classes that only have one (or very few) implementations. > The UEFI variable drivers such as VariableRuntimeDxe, VariableSmm, > VariableStandaloneMm, etc. (and their dependent protocol/library > stack), typically acquire UEFI variable store flash information > with PCDs declared in MdeModulePkg. > > For example: > [Pcd] > gEfiMdeModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdFlashNvStorageVariableBase > gEfiMdeModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdFlashNvStorageVariableBase64 > gEfiMdeModulePkgTokenSpaceGuid.PcdFlashNvStorageVariableSize > > These PCDs work as-is in the StandaloneMm driver if they are not > dynamic such as Dynamic or DynamicEx because PCD services are not > readily available in the Standalone MM environment.
